Stereo recording? Will it record in stereo if I record with an external stereo microphone?

Yes, and it works nicely. Plug in a mic, and the camcorder asks you to select between microphone, headphones, or AV-out (for non-hdmi tvs); it can't automatically distinguish what is plugged in. If you leave the mic plugged in, you will have to answer this question each time the camcorder is powered on. I used a Sony ECM-DS30P Electret Condenser Digital Microphone and it sounded great on my large screen LCD TV.

Yes.The camera comes with a 'stereo' mic jack for external mics (next to an accessory terminal).

It appears to do this with my Canon Camcorder connected to a microphone mixer with the adapter. It is not true stereo sound.

Hello Alyssa, while the Vantec USB External 7.1 Adapter is no longer my daily driver, I did double check to make sure and yes, it does have a stereo mix type option available to use on recording devices. Hope this helps. I have attached a screenshot to show you, http://prntscr.com/5ldhwp and http://prntscr.com/5ldigs Cheers, R.

The plug in the photo is mono - not stereo, as mentioned in the video. If that's the case, you'll need a mono to stereo adapter to get dual mono sound. Maybe amazon could verify which plug it has or correct the photo.

According to the box, the audio out is stereo and the microphone in in mono. I purchased this item but only used it once when I tested it. It worked as expected.

If your signal is mono, it will only record as mono. You can split the signal into two channels, but it's still going to be mono

no. the only way i know of to use an external mic with this camera is to sync some separately recorded audio using editing software (you can do this by looking at the visual image of the recorded sound). But for many purposes it would be much easier to just buy a camera that has a mic jack.

Yes, there is a software called Skype Mp3 Recorder and many others like Fraps/Open Broadcasting Software that'll record both sides of the audio. This microphone will make your audio sound great in recordings too.

You can but it defaults to recording stereo. On something like garage band it is as simple as changing the input from stereo to mono and then that opens up a second option for a second input in mono. This is a great little interface. I use it regularly.

I recommend you read the manual. I'm using this unit for stereo recordings, but I believe there's a mono setting which would do that. Keep in mind there are only 4 XLR Powered connections

You can output separately if you decide to left and right stereo and then edit it back together post recording. Otherwise no, there isn't really a way to do that.

Here is the information from the operations guide: "This unit has provided special AUX IN jack, through this jack other audio sources can be connected to this unit and be amplified". That sounds (pardon the pun) like it might apply to a supplemental microphone. There is a built-in condenser mic. There are no instructions for recording from an external source.

So I just ordered this specifically for recording my songs off my computer onto cassette tapes to hand out at shows, and I am sad to report the mic input is only mono so it cannot record in stereo (even though I am connecting a stereo 1/8" audio cable that transmits stereo audio to other devices).

For stereo recording you need two mics in a stereo config with two channels. This is only one mic and a receiver. One channel. Mono recording only. Hth. ps. technically, i think, you can do a stereo recording with one mic but would have to do various recordings with the mic in different positions.

Yes it will, it uses the 1/8 inch mini jack which is the same as the 3.5 mm . If the recorder is set to mono, it will only record from one side of the mic, but if set to stereo it will record in stereo. You can use it either way.

No. It's just the software for your PC, so you can record it on your PC. You'll need a minimum small mixer or a USB Microphone.
